My Thrash, Prowl, and Skullcruncher should be here this weekend.

I got deluxe Thrash and Prowl, as well as Skullcruncher this weekend.

Skullcruncher is cute and fun. I am amazed he has now ended up in 2 modern cartoons back to back no less.

Thrash is pretty decent, though i still think the warrior is the better toy. This one can pose nicely, but his transformation is a smidge soft and fiddly for the feet in alt mode. Plus he can't actually have a sidecar. But he still works nicely.

Prowl is hilarious, I actually like him a lot more than Hot Rod from Cyberverse. Amazing what better color choices do for a mold. It is still subpar, but it at least looks the part better. I kinda wish he had a new head, but otherwise, its strangely somehow works.

I hope we get a good sticker set from ToyHax for Prowl, he really needs it.

Saw 1 step Breakdown for the first time this morning. Kinda lame that wave 4 is exactly the same as wave 3 except they traded Wheeljack for his barely noticeably different repaint. Surely they could have moved things around better.

Got to mess around with Prowl, this mold really does make a uniquely fun toy that doesn't really work as either a good Hot Rod or a good Prowl, but makes for a nice Checkpoint.

Also, warrior Jawbreaker is still a lovely little guy

Takara's Earthspark line has has two new deluxe figures via Amazon.jp. ESD-11 DX is none other than Terran Slash (Thrash). This figures looks to be Takara's release of the Deluxe Thrash.
The more interesting reveal is that ESD-10 DX is Prowl. This time the Cyberverse Deluxe Prowl is getting an incredible repaint rather than the Cyberverse Deluxe Hot Rod repaint Hasbro released.

Both figures are listed for 3,850 JPY ($24.00 USD) and are set to release on June 29 ,2024. Images and Amazon.jp links can be seen below.

His name is still "Thrash". It's just that the Japanese language doesn't have a proper "Th" sound, so it uses "S" sounds to approximate it.

They also use "R" sounds for "L" sounds, so any machine translator is going to instinctively misinterpret "Thrash" as "Slash" since the latter is a more common word than the former.

@Sabrblade- Thank you for letting me know this- I seriously had no clue!
